Cleaning your paintball apparel

[burlyheads]

@paintballtechpb can I use a dehumidifier instead of a box fan?

[UltraEvil64]

Mike the swab tip you gave us is now pointless cuz you told the whole paintball community...

[NxtGenSports]

Is there any threat of mold by letting them just sit on the floor and dry?

[nhawn9]

what aout cleats? just hot water in the sink then air dry?

[jchan3123]

Put the clean clothes right on the dirty floor. Why not just hang them and let them air dry.

[unbelevaman]

Then what do you do if you need to shrink a jersey?

[hahaha2243]

@unbelevaman buy a smaller one lol

[HUNTRndNICKtakeValpo]

[ParisPatriot]

[Eyeeffects]

[MisfitMafiaPB]

@Fishingkid1999 yes, i hang mine up 

[eidlinux]

Yes just hang em on your shower rod or a clothesline.

[Shadowpuppet7x]

3:09 what happen to hanging them up out side lol...

[WeegardNGD]

can you just let the apparel air dry?

[CAknightmearpaintbal]

i really wish i had watched this vid first befor i tryed washing my stuff

[Forman6]

Damn you ADD! I have never finished watching a whole you tube video up to date! I am having an extra hard time concentrating on this one!

I keep watching the ending! Like 3 times now! now 4 because i'm bitching about it!

Did you know our universe is 13.6 billion years old?

and if you compressed the entire universe into a year, the big bang would be on January 1st., and entire human race would be on December 31st? around midday? with pyramids being built 11 seconds ago?

[joshfoley29]

i have a 100% polyester jersey but its too big will it shrink in the dryer? please respond anyone

[bgarcia917]

the soap made an extrange sound jajajajjaj nice vid Mike keep them coming :)

[396este]

soap might help XD

[oneshotmike55]

so helpful

[Zititeez]

lol, i use this big ass industrial fan and it drys in like 4 hours.

[victorgirgis]

you can just hang your stuff and the is the easiest and cleanest way to do it

[pbcarnage]

i made a paintball dryer kinda i took a big box and cut a hole in it so a fan can fit throuh it then i wash my gear either with a hose or in the sink and then i let them dry in the dryer it works awsome

[samirportmann]

what about the marker :D??

[brenden8274]

@samirportmann throw that in too , remember a warranty is highly suggested

[OV3CHK1NxQC]

@samirportmann Bad idea ;P

[maddride]

what about hang on a close line?

[ScreemzHD]

Hey mike my Empire paintball elbow pads have Memory foam in them. The water and etc wont affect them will they?



[jerezano1313]

do you have to flip the jersey inside out on any of them??

[picture745]

did anyone else get chills when he turned on the fan?

[jiggersman10]

@picture745 no.

[maxcarnagepb]

you should leave them i the clothes bin and put the fan on top of it

[maxcarnagepb]

@Conkerx52x69 you cn try animal paintball or raza life .com they sell custom jerseys

[xHershisquirtx]

I just hang dry, if you think you can just dry them like anything, than you are pretty stupid. Its just common sense, right?

[LuckyDudeWithAGuitar]

Could you make a video or do you have any tips on how to clean a woodball equipement?

[lilW4life]

@LuckyDudeWithAGuitar

its generally the same stuff.

[bambootm]

We have the same washing machine.

[DrStrup]

I just watched you do laundry...fuck indoor paintball field closings!

[406sean]

u forgot to put the paintball gun in!!

[Abstriku]

r those proto defender knee pads?

[littlekidwithdahat]

@Abstriku yes

[crucifytheinnocent1]

@orangecrest4217 o-rings are inside your marker...they wrap around the moving parts of the internals...they prevent most metal on metal contact...without them the internals of your marker wouldnt move very well and the internals would get worn out much faster

[swiftprov]

can i do this with my gun?

[fatguyintinypants]

@swiftprov no no no lol dont put you gun in the washing machine

[xiAmplifiedix]

Can I air dry it outside? I live in Arizona so it would dry fast

[chodenifisint]

i put my gear thru the dryer and its alright

[fatguyintinypants]

@chodenifisint do you have any custom logos or anything like that on it?

[bakerman4444]

i never have to wash my gear because no one can hit me...im a ghost.

[POTHEADZZ420]

whenever i go clean my gear, theres always stains of paint. i can never get them off. how would i be able to make them look clean again??

[PbPongo]

@POTHEADZZ420 Try Bleach

[cuevas04]

12 to 24 hrs to dry?......it only take me about 4- 6 hrs for mine to air dry. But of course i live in Southern California where its a lot more warmer and dry.

[yugyhs]

how long do i put them in the wash for?

[PedroCaballeroZ]

if anyone can tell me if u put protection pads or pads in your pants or wat ever pads in the washer wouldnt it ruin from all the water?

[krims0n70]

can i put my flurry vest in the wash?

[xxxxXMusic4LifeXxxxx]

soap made a cool sound:D

[colonials74]

your loadin up tht thing lol how does it all get clean?

[airsoftfever1441]

i like to hand wash and air dry my gear

[dragonfur988]

XSV pants ftw!

[leblancjordan]

is it okay to just hang them up to dry?

[TheMedalofHonor]

WHat if your dryer has a air dry section or botton you will say!!!

[tucsondog]

I love to put everything on the driveway in the sun to dry. The looks from the neighbours are priceless.

[black00civic]

[66atsalinas]

hey man why dont you hang them on a rope in you garage or your back yard or your balcony for 24 hours??? sun and wind will do the job \...at least here in Greece they work pretty nice

[overtone83]

Couldn't you just put your stuff in the dryer on a cold air setting

[leedo1999]

no it tears them up

[overtone83]

learned that the hard way, good thing I was getting new pants anyway

[ChIcOMiCo95]

do you have to turn on the fan? help!

[Fou4Fckuck]

@ChIcOMiCo95 your an idiot

[OV3CHK1NxQC]

@Fou4Fckuck Derp xD

[smiteey]

@Fou4Fckuck I know you posted the comment I am replying to a year ago but you used the wrong your.

The properyour would be you're, as in you are which means you are the idiot.

[mario11168]

@smiteey I believe a very (very) common grammar error compared to a "do I have to turn on the fan?" comment is not that stupid at all.

[SwoopdySwoop]

personally i do everything the way he does but i hang my stuff up to dry and no fan

[alcateiapaintball]

24h Fan dry? Whatever happened to using sunlight and wind to dry stuff?

[AriashyKyoyue]

LOL ! I do that :S guess we're still in the flinstiones time

[hardcorescooters818]

yea... accidently put my dye c8s in the dryer... oh well didnt hurt them this time at least and now i no not to do it again

[xdyenastyx]

oh dude it diidnt hurt mine either but arent c8s amazing

[IRunYou247]

For Jersery, Pants And Packs I Just Hand Wash My Stuff Cause I Kno It Will Be Clean Plus It Wont Mess Up At All, Then I Just Bought A Clothing Rack For Like 10$ And Let It Just Air Dry. For Pods I Just Clean With Water And Towel/Paper Towel. Just Thought Id Share What I Do To Clean My Gear.

[RosesForTheDead7]

Dude are you illiterate? Not every word has a capital letter...

Just makes you look stupid and doubles the work you have to do to type a sentence..

[lonewolfriot]

he did it off a fone dick heaf

[RosesForTheDead7]

thats funny i wrote my comment from my phone and it doesnt have a capital letter.. i know loads of people who put capital letters. its retarded and makes ya look stupid... so shut ya mouth dick head

[PCXPBOY]

@RosesForTheDead7 actually i dont know if this is the case but for archos, ipod touch, etc will put capitals for everything but i do think he looks stupid

[shanenazareth]

how long do paintball jerseys past ?

[socal1000]

best thing for mask is take it apart and use a micro fiber cloth and clean it by hand

[ben1o3]

could u wash your mask???

[drewbaby20]

your gonna fuck up your washing machine throwing that much in lol

[matrixowner99]

wow this method definatly beats wearing it in the shower lol. my pants take like 3 days to dry in front of a fan....

[77NoJo]

My pods got real painty and dirty can I put them in the dishwasher?

[TannerMattStupidVids]

yeah just put it in the top rack. so they dont melt. or if your washer has a heat setting set it to low

[nextgenhelp1]

to wash pods just rinse them out in warm water in a sink and air dry!

[xdyenastyx]

yes thts wat ive been doin for years and any myths about damage to ur pods is false because think about you will lose your pods before the break

[paintballftw101]

lol just get your pods and wash them in the sink

[metalskatelife]

anyone have any tips on washing a tac vest?

[pbmaniac97]

yeah throw it away get over getting hit

[donogic]

i have the same washing machine lol

[outlawPB]

is it bad if you leave it in the sun?

[paintballer2334]

does doing this get dog hair off cuz my dog goes crazy when i come home from playing paintball cuz im not home all day and i get loads of dog hair on my stuff

[paintballkid366363]

your dog sound awesome!

[kickinassiniraq]

you have my yellow evil 06 jersey

[rookiepaintballer]

it depends, what were you thinking?

[ctowntxboyz]

i put my empire ground pounder chest protector in there, invert LTD pants&jersey, empire liquid SE pack, eclipse sandana, dye elbow pads and empire knee pads, neck protector, empire freedom gloevs, dye sliding shorts, and swabs in the washer then hang them on hangerss and they dry a lot faster than when theyre on top of each other like mike did

[nirvana1393]

is it ok to let em hang outside?

[jasonbsa]

yea

[nlesch4235]

@nirvana1393 as long as its not really hot. not in direct sunlight

[treecheers]

@nirvana1393 ofc :D

[FlyingFooBalls]

@nirvana1393 no, it isnt.

[GameLikeGunz]

@nirvana1393 they get stolen by dark people :/

[theFNGmann]

@nirvana1393 i would hang them over the shower curtain

[PaintballChick13]

Clean freak's tip: Get ammonia cleaning fluid (e.g Starclen [i think :)]) and put some on a cloth/Q-tip to clean the marker on OUTSIDE, especially on grip, trigger etc where you touch it most. Ammonia kills bacteria like an A-bomb, ohh yeahh :D

[TheClayboy123]

when i dry my stuff i hang it in front of the fan it dries quicker

[InterestingFlavour]

I hardly ever wash my pack, I just let the paint dry in and put them away. They're just going to get more paint on them anyway, and it really prolongs the life of your gear.

[KidsnHeroes]

...................what

[pbkilla901]

lol at him telling you to take peoples swabs

[hdhproductions7]

well i have never purchased a squeegie or swab, ppl at my feild always leave them there and i just pick them up

[lulu1394]

haha cheap ass

[hdhproductions7]

hey there free and they work

[HiBBY2010]

@hdhproductions7

hobo much?

[KillerK1w1]

what are those extra sleeves on the pod pack are they for extra pods? i never understood

[samuri8000]

yes

[TStouffer]

yea, but they're pretty shitty usually because pods can fall out, so don't use them unless you have to

[Slickdog90]

Thats hella ghetto, but a really nice idea!

[artard1456]

do u just throw the cloths in a heapor douspace then out w/ the fan

[pballa321123]

It works really well!

[Shaneogrg23]

uh can i put my paintballs in the washer if i dropped them on the ground?... also i was wander if i could put my barrel in the washer to ... thanks

[stlWarriors77]

never get paintballs wet, the shells are gelitin, it well basicly turn to mush if it gets wet. if u want to clean paintballs, like maybe one broke in a bad or ur pod or something, dump them on like a paper towl and roll em around untill they are clean, never get them wet. and u shouldnt have to put a barrel in the washer, just run some water on it and squege, no problem

[jpmont11]

i hose my gear off :D

[AriashyKyoyue]

LOL

[GIBRANSPB]

can u let them dry in the sun

[meggadoomer]

ya, but they will fade

[Spartan5267]

SO putting gloves in the washing machine doesn't ruin them?

[pballa321123]

No it dosnt

[cargodudeMT]

rubber squeegee in washing machine? nice.....

[edmundm1]

I do the same thing as mike except i put my stuff up on hangers doesnt that make the stuff dry quicker

[massgas7]

wow, you must use alot of power using only box fans an dryers, but i guess if its too humid (like you always say it is there) then you have no choice.

[WeirdMovies]

haha listen at 1:44

[goodmonster818]

haha. yea i heard that squirt at 1:44

[TeaBagCorner]

lol i get in the shower with my pants and jersey on

[skoolsuckz12]

[XxPaintballDemonxX]

[tunnels93]

[XxArmyRangerxX1]

[lolomg69aids]

[mactoshdog]

(what i think is foam)

cheers

[Nick964]

i gotta nab me some barrel swabs and sell em on the internets

[DARQMX]

wouldn't this cause mildew mike? with them all on top of each other like that? I hate Mildew with a passion, I am sure in Florida is worse because it is so moist down there.

[carpenterbee10]

just hang it on a clothes line.

[Hayloh3fan]

i have those evil gloves but they are blue i like them a lot

[DrunkPaintball]
